    Awesome car the R5 Turbo...if you ever get a chance to ride in one, take it!

    That last mystery car is the HSV (Holden Special Vehicles) Grange, based on the Holden Senator (and soon to be related to the Pontiac G8).

    Just a wild guess here, but is that a VW Fox? :P

    BTW - What is with the "SUV Chic" treatment being applied to every conceivable car????

    If they ever put mud tires & cladding on a Lotus Elise, I may have to hurt someone!!! :mad:

    Not a SUV, but how about a pickup?

    Not withstanding the plate, that's known in Brazil as the
    VW CrossFox , it is a variant on the small FWD Fox sedan.

    WAG, 1953 Hillman? Simca?
  • fintailfintail Member Posts: 58,565
    Suicide front doors point to it being a Fiat
  • magnettemagnette Member Posts: 4,234
    Fiat 1100 estate circa 1953 - it was probably called something like Publica or Gardineria, but I can't remember....maybe Familia ?
  • andys120andys120 Member Posts: 23,675
    Yep, Fiat 1100C Familia from the early 50s.

    Very early Porsche 356, and yes, a nice shot
  • ateixeiraateixeira Member Posts: 72,587
    I saw plenty of those, too, so they sell well. And guess what? FWD only. No AWD even as an option.

    Fiat has a Palio Weekend Adventure that is similar in concept. They copied the Outback idea, basically, minus AWD.

    The raised suspension actually makes sense in the pot-holed roads in Brazil, though.

    Honda Civic Ballade?
  • ateixeiraateixeira Member Posts: 72,587
    It's a Honda, but guess again on the model.

    Did you notice it's RHD?
  • bumpybumpy Member Posts: 4,425
    My next guess would be a Honda Stream, but I think the Stream is more MPV-ish.

    Honda Edix?
  • hudsonthedoghudsonthedog Member Posts: 552
    It's a Honda Odyssey....Japanese market model.
  • ateixeiraateixeira Member Posts: 72,587
    That's it, Odyssey.

    Her son goes to the same school as my son. She is from South Africa and a Diplomat, so they imported their van.

    It's very, very space efficient. Much roomier inside than a Mazda5 or a Kia Rondo, for instance, yet not nearly as big as the US Odyssey.

    Saw it in the blog so I won't say anything. ;)
  • stickguystickguy Member Posts: 53,614
    an early (1960s) NSU? Prince?

    That's the Mazda Cosmo Sport 110s
    under-appreciated classic

    Lol, me too (otherwise I'd be thinking Corvair?)
  • andys120andys120 Member Posts: 23,675
    Yep, today's blog celebrates it as Mazda's first Rotary-engined offering.

    59 Renault Dauphine?
  • andys120andys120 Member Posts: 23,675
    Pretty good guess but it's not a Dauphine, it's a
    1958 Renault Fregate Transfluide, a larger contemporary of the Dauphine and as so charmingly put by the website Le Monde de l'automobile:

    Première voiture française avec transmission automatique.

    "Looked like a Hindustan to me "

    I thought that at first as well...but the Hindustan doesn't have the wide rear fenders and the ornate grille.
  • andys120andys120 Member Posts: 23,675
    At least it's licensed as one.

    Isn't this the Corbin Sparrow? Electric car
  • steverstever Guest Posts: 52,454
    Er, a Pasquali Riscio with a body kit?

    Is that guy patrolling mall parking lots with that thing or what?
  • tmarttmart Member Posts: 2,407
    Whatever it is, I like it! :shades:
  • andys120andys120 Member Posts: 23,675

    A 55 Eldorado?
  • urnewsurnews Member Posts: 668
    1957 Cadillac, maybe an ElDorado. Sweet machine.
  • andys120andys120 Member Posts: 23,675
    Yep it's a '55 Eldo. The '55 Eldo differed from lesser '55 Cads by featuring a larger fin which appeared on all '57 Cadillacs. Cadillac had a habit of doing things like this with the Eldo.

    The '53 Eldorado featured the wraparound windshield that all '54 Caddies would get and all GM cars got in '55.

    A SAAB from the 60s. I always forget the numbers, so I will guess a 92?
